A great Cason Wallace season will put Thunder in a bad second-apron spot (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Oklahoma City Thunder are in a weird position when it comes to Cason Wallace. Obviously, for the betterment of the team and their chances at a championship this season, they would love for Wallace to play great. However, the better Wallace plays, the more difficult next summer will be for OKC. The more money that Wallace ends up wanting in free agency, the harder it is going to be for the Thunder to duck under the second apron. And based on the way they acted this summer, it feels like they
Ajay Mitchell is in perfect position to help Jalen Williams next season (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ajay Mitchell has a perfect opportunity to help Jalen Williams next season. Both are coming back from injuries, but it feels like Williams’ injury concerns were more chronic. So, if the Thunder are able to depend on Mitchell as a lead scorer once again next season, it takes a ton of pressure off Williams so he doesn’t have to rush things next year. Mitchell looks like a star in the making. What opportunities came his way last season, he made the most of them. Unfortunately, when the Thunder need
Thunder should want Aday Mara or Thomas Sorber to make Isaiah Hartenstein tradable (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Oklahoma City need Aday Mara or Thomas Sorber to make Isaiah Hartenstein dispensable.

But the only way for them to feel comfortable trading Hartenstein would be if one of their young centers actually bl
Chet Holmgren is destined for second-apron trade speculation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Oklahoma City Thunder have one of the best rosters in basketball. They won a championship just two years ago, and last year they made it to Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals before losing to the San Antonio Spurs. This summer, they spent their time finding a way to get under the second apron, and that's going to be a problem moving forward, too. And Chet Holmgren – though the Thunder should absolutely not trade him – should definitely be looking over his shoulder. Holmgren has one of t
Steve Ballmer's latest Clippers statement is great news for the Thunder (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The LA Clippers got absolutely ripped apart by the Kawhi Leonard punishment. Not only were Steve Ballmer and multiple front-office members fined and suspended, but they were also stripped of five future first-round picks. It sounded like they were going to fight the penalty, but Ballmer just put out a statement saying that they will accept it. That’s good news for the Oklahoma City Thunder. Getting stripped of five future firsts will definitely hurt the Clippers’ ability to improve in the long-t
